Course Overview

The rapid expansion of electronic devices has significantly increased electronic waste, making it one of the fastest-growing waste streams globally. Discarded phones, computers, batteries, and appliances often end up in landfills or informal recycling sites, releasing toxic substances that harm human health and the environment.

Weak collection systems, unsafe recycling practices, limited public awareness, and inadequate regulatory enforcement continue to challenge effective e-waste management. At the same time, e-waste contains valuable recoverable materials such as metals and components that can be reused, creating economic opportunities when properly managed.

This course provides a practical, end-to-end understanding of e-waste management. Participants will explore collection system design, safe recycling processes, material recovery, regulatory frameworks, extended producer responsibility approaches, and integration with circular economy strategies. Through hands-on exercises and real-world case studies, learners gain actionable skills to implement sustainable and compliant e-waste systems.

Training on E-Waste Management: Collection, Recycling, and Policy FAQs

Quick answers to common questions about this course

E-waste refers to discarded electrical and electronic equipment such as computers, mobile phones, televisions, batteries, and household appliances.

Improper handling releases toxic substances into the environment, while proper recycling recovers valuable materials and reduces pollution and health risks.

Participants will learn to design collection systems, implement safe recycling practices, develop regulatory frameworks, and integrate e-waste strategies into broader circular economy initiatives.

EPR is a policy approach that makes producers responsible for the end-of-life management of their products, encouraging better product design and improved recycling systems.

Environmental officials, municipal planners, recycling companies, NGOs, corporate sustainability teams, and policy makers seeking to strengthen e-waste systems and regulations.
